AH! The great union heavyweight speaks! But nobody is listening because you are a boring old git. Go and count your money.

What are you, Tony? Thought Police? Anti-fun Brigade? Gloomy Gus inc?
Where is today’s humour? Are we so PC that this sort of thing offends us? Like the gal in the striped outfit at the end, give as good as you get! For ****’s sake, let’s laugh more and condemn less!

Don’t let us get between you and the lawnmowing, Tony.

Blair knows the secret to slimming....cancer.

Perhaps he could go on a worldwide tour discussing it’s various benefits. Plus there is nothing more fashionable than a bald head wearing bandana and pale skin.

Judging from previous comments I’ve made that have been deleted...Blair can dish it out but can’t take it.

We all know that Blair, Piers and Bolt are the very model of slimness.

So, on a more pertinent subject; what’d you have for breakfast this am fatty?

What a perfectly nasty thing to say, Sock. And you’re surprised some of your comments have been deleted? Time for some self-appraisal, dearie.

Way, way out of line Sock. Congratulations on beating cancer Tim, and all the best for a long, successful life.

Keep on posting Sock’s comments, Tim.

Next time the head tilties lecture us on civility, we can point to one of their own poking fun at cancer survivors.

Sock, please call your parents and yell at them for failing you.

Maybe if you were not so loaded with fleas you would understand that teasing fat people is the same as teasing cancer sufferers.

For every overeating who gets fat, their are just as many smokers and drinkers who get cancer. Not everything is genetics. Plenty of fat people get cancer too, if anything they are over-represented in cancer statistics.

And for the record I am not leftwing. Blair would be vaguely aware of my posting habits under different names.

I am 110kg plus, Sock. I laughed so hard at this I nearly spilled my KFC potato and gravy and non-diet Pepsi all over the keyboard.

I don’t like calling people names on posts so I will refrain from calling you a joyless, pompous old shill who has nothing beter to do than get offended on other people’s behalf.

While you are taking offence please click on this youtube clip of Rodney Dangerfield from Back to School.

Oh dear. Tony N just demonstrated that lefties have no sense of humour and then comes Sock to demonstrate they they are not very good at understanding simple concepts. I’ll try to explain this in simple terms. The skit was attacking people who put down ‘plus-size’ women. The thin women were the baddies. Maybe we should have a law that says that the baddies have to wear black hats. That might make it easier for some people to understand.

It is ironic that, while you were busy fulminating against what you saw as an attack on lards, you completely overlooked the fact that the funniest jokes in that skit were targeted at the slim pair of beauty queens.
You beclowned yourself Tony. Again.

And I have thusly beclowned mine own self by referring to Sock as Tony N. I’ll see myself out.

You do not see comedy like that today, Tim. Bloody brilliant.

I saw that skit as being as much a piss-take of the chuckleheaded social x-ray (thanx Tom Wolfe) ‘hosts’ of the show as of the ‘models’. But then, I find myself in the position of needing to conserve my energy these days and saving my Outrageous! Outrage! reserves for things which really matter. So there ya go.

Isn’t it ironic - in days gone by plump ladies were considered beautiful and voluptuous all over the world. You only have to lok at art. Now it’s just parts of Africa and some Island nations that have that view. Personally, I prefer to be slim and fit for health not just cosmetic reasons but it takes opportunity and good physical health to even get there and that is not always the case. Some people are ‘hefty’ or ‘skinny’ for medical reasons and so bitichiness relating to weight status seems all the more inappropriate.

We might also remember that those with generous figures often have generous hearts as well unlike pez-dispensing bitches who often have few redeeming features.
